Synopsis: After a spacecraft is severely damaged with the deaths of the captain and several crewmembers, the ship's artificial intelligence, following his former orders, attempts to resuscitate him, and constructs a virtual version of him which demands the crew continue the mission instead of turning back, on pain of summary execution for mutiny.
